They really are astonishing pictures, part of an ad campaign. He looks just like mum. I'm not keen. Please Google for ref, can't do link.

The wig is weird but the rest is fine. I don't know why people are getting so excited. 🤷‍♀️

IfNot · 18/07/2019 15:17

Um..it's all a bit over thunk, the panic about his vulnerable child status and his "wierd" relationship with his mother!
He seems like quite a typical teenager prancing about. The pouty, blinky posing is quite sexualised (although silly) but it's not graphic.
17 year olds are considered adults in law for lots of things. If he got done for a crime he could get sent to a proper prison. He could join the army. He could play for England. So he's posing and looking come hither in make up? Meh. I can't get het up about it.
I wouldn't if he was a girl either.

MarshaBradyo · 18/07/2019 15:22

The looking like his mother doesn’t come into it for me, inasmuch I have no idea what their relationship is like

Please at least take this seriously instead of so dismissive, if not why bother posting?

Mummy it's Marilyn pictured here with a 17 year old Gavin Rossdale. That pose Damian does wasn't a thing in the eighties.

ifnot your reaction is exactly whats of such concern. Irony!

CSIblonde · 18/07/2019 15:27

He's gorgeous but the poses & hair & lip gloss look exactly like a pouty 80's page 3 glamour shoot. All he needs is boobs.

???
But I can't take it seriously...because, as others have pointed out, the vid sort of looks like a spoof anyway! I'd be more disturbed by the fetish bunny ears tbh...
Were you never 17? I was working ft, living with my mate and going out in all manner of daft outfits silver hotpants.
Like I said I can't get het up. There are much worse things than older teenagers in lipgloss.

TruthOnTrial · 18/07/2019 15:49

Ifnot. Do you think his relationship with his dm is normal, that might be the issue with your lack of understanding.

TruthOnTrial · 18/07/2019 15:50

Dont get het up. Noones asking you to.

Go out in silver hotpants - youve missed the point

Who mentioned the lipgloss?

You are trying very hard to make this about something its not.

IfNot · 18/07/2019 15:52

Wow. I know almost nothing about
Damien's relationship with his mother and I'm sure you don't either. I understand you have a problem with the advert. I don't. That's called not agreeing.

Yanbu. I thought it was some trans campaign at first.
He looks like a joke. Absolute joke.

libbynaughtz26 · 18/07/2019 16:02

Its weird. Very try hard. I've always thought there's something odd about him.

If you dont see exploitation, thats a worry, again.

Thanks. Don’t remember him at all. Deffo not my kind of music. I agree the open mouth pout wasn’t a thing in females. It was more looking sultry. But still your pic and my pic are fine. The pic of Damian gives me the shivers. Combi of narcisstic supply for his mother and the “can I give you a blow job now / would you like to fuck me” pout.

So they can't even be bothered writing a story now and just paste the thread. I hope they get well paid for their hard work.

Sarcelle · 18/07/2019 16:18

From all the photos I have ever seen of him, apart from when he was very young, he has been posing and playing up to the camera. Behaviour exactly like his mother. He comes across as vain and shallow.

IfNot · 18/07/2019 16:23

Uh-huh Truth...nodding and smiling.....

P.s Fuck off Daily Mail

londonrach · 18/07/2019 16:24

Agree

This is factually inaccurate for England and Wales. You don’t get sent to a full adult prison until you are 25. They have separate prisons for 18-25 year olds and under 18s.

Oh is that right Chaz? That's a good thing I think. I knew boys who got sent to proper prison at 17/18 but it was a long while ago. Young people under about 21 are definitely more at risk from predators, it's true.
I still don't think the ad was disturbing/shocking/creepy (except for the pvc bunny..). Its just a young man prancing in make up. Unless there are some extra pics I havent seen??

NCforthis2019 · 18/07/2019 18:02

He looks nothing like his mother. I do like PatMcG’s make up though - wouldnt buy because of him, but would buy because she’s great. A little sad that he’s only known as Liz Hurleys son though.
